Teaching Psychology and Neuroscience with MATLAB

Study and research in psychology and neuroscience generate huge amounts of varied data. MATLAB enables educators to import, analyze, and visualize such data; and draw further inferences through models and simulations.

Due to its ease of use and extensive capabilities, psychology and neuroscience departments often incorporate MATLAB into their curricula and lab work. Educators and researchers have created many resources and developed best practices for teaching computation that are available to colleagues to adopt and modify for use in future courses.
